Geee Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Daily Mail:Poland's former president and Solidarity founder Lech Walesa has snubbed an invitation to meet with President Barack Obama.Mr Walesa, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1983, had been invited by Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski to attend a gathering of Poland's leading political figures with the U.S. President in Warsaw on Saturday.'It's difficult to tell journalists what you'd like to say to the president of a superpower. This time I won't tell him, I won't meet him, it doesn't suit me,' Walesa told news station TVN24.Mr Obama will leave the G8 summit in Deauville, France, and travel to Warsaw this evening on the last stop on his European tour. It is the President's first time in Poland and he will take the opportunity to hold political meetings that will focus on security, energy and joint U.S.-Polish efforts to promote democracy in North Africa, Belarus and elsewhere in Eastern Europe.But hours before his arrival, Polish headlines were dominated by news that Mr Obama was being snubbed by Mr Walesa.

No Ipod of Obamas speeches for you! I'll bet if it were Bush the Elder, or Dubya, or heck, Sarah Palin, Walesa would have given them the royal treatment. He just gave Obambi the middle finger...
